Now it is, remember we got hammered by 3 goals in 3 consecutive games and we haven’t played any of the contenders recently.

He wants more control and less unpredictability. That’s fine but other teams control games and look dangerous.

It seems we play this slow build up to stop teams hitting us quickly. Rather than moving quickly and taking a chance to score. Would put on another forward sooner rather than later

Need to up the pace and make this extra man count.

Hopefully it makes the WRU take note. If they cannot keep the best players who will go and watch the regions?

I don’t think there has been any doubt about his talent, it’s his fitness record that puts teams off him. Keep him playing and he will score for the team.

Surely puts pressure on himself to win other competitions, or at least compete in them. In 5 years time we would remember a cup win, we won’t remember stumbling into 3/4 place.

I wouldn’t expect him to travel. If Slot picks him now he weakens his position.

Will be interesting to see if Salah is in the squad the next couple of match days. Can see a lot just leaving him out. Expect to see Frimpong there, if he gets fit.

We backed pace and that is what we have. The Aussies showing it’s not just pace you need. If the ball moves then you can cause problems.

Surely any manager should be confident their team will score at a corner. If not they haven’t prepared well.

I think all concerned are waiting for an offer now, or there is one on the table. So everyone can move on. Let Mongolians have a prolonged retirement in Saudi where he will be the big draw in once again, we just need to start firing and shore up our defence.

Salah has always been like this, remember West Ham under Klopp. I think the ACN has been an issue all season. It’s clear Slot wants to move on from Salah and (I think) hoped to get to the ACN before changing. That’s hasn’t worked and so he dropped Salah. We are unbeaten in those three games.

I agree about the upturn in form. However the issue is comments from players in interviews. Jones wasn’t exactly happy a couple of games ago and now Salah. If Leeds players were said to be players kg for the manager what does our performance say? FWIW I don’t think he should be sacked

No confidence in Defence. As soon as the ball is crossed into the area we panic. Konate’s form is really affecting the rest of the team. I said it when we had Mignolet in goal. We were bad because the defence had no confidence in him. Once we got a good keeper we looked much better.

Most teams do, especially if he plays at Full Back

He has done a lot for the club but this year he has dropped off and as he says he is not bigger than the club. When he leaves the club he will go as a legend who won us two leagues and a champions league.

Very few LFC fans actually want Gerrard as a manger, even as an interim. He is a living legend as a player, but his record at Villa wasn’t the best. Most people I have seen wanting Klopp back are younger fans (mid to late 20’s) who really only know him and want what they know.

Should he start? Yes. Will he start? No. He is Slots very last resort once everyone else has been used up. He could come on and score a hat trick and he would still be on the bench the next game.

If TAA was in this team I bet Isak would have at least 5 prem goals now, even with the same amount of football. TAA would look for that early cross into the box, how many headed goals did did Bobby and Mane score. Stop playing inverted wingers and get them getting to the byline and crossing the ball

It’s not the Liverpool way. The team from the 70/80’s would bore teams to death with passing. The high pressing is a Klopp style of play and he got the players in the squad to fit his system. The main issue we have is our main No. 9 feeds off crosses but our wingers don’t cross it.

How did they never consider it? Did they honestly believe the URC and TV companies were just going to say, “no probs Dave cut a team we have no issues with that?”

Yeah I read this in my lovely LFC top that cost £15. No way am I paying over £70 for a top. This Xmas I have got three full kits for my 9 year old for the cost of one from the website. As long as I don’t put them through a tumble dryer they will be fine.
